Soap Saviour

Dove beauty bar is probably the best soap around. I am not normally a big fan of Dove, I have had problems in the past with their moisturizing products - I don't find them very "moisturizing." But this is the one saving grace for Dove for me.

I find that the bar lathers up really well, it feels nourishing and not harsh leaving your skin dry like some soaps can feel. I even use it as a sneaky quick face wash when I'm feeling lazy in the shower and it definitely doesn't feel bad afterwards. Plus as far as soap goes it smells nice and creamy and not intensely floral and fruity like a lot of soaps can be. I don't have any skin irritations but this is one of the best feeling soaps, during and after use, I have ever used short of going to Lush.

Tips: Have a hunt around. I know the warehouse often has sales where it is $1 a bar.

Dove Beauty Bar

My fondness for Dove Beauty Bar goes back to living at home many years ago and mum always having it on hand, so using it always brings back a certain nostalgia.

I tend to always have one of these lurking about in the bathroom, whether for use in the shower in lieu of body wash, as a basic cleanser for my face, or at the hand basin as an alternative to the hand wash.

I love how the light fragrance of the beauty bar, which is pleasant but not overpowering. Dove lathers easy, and I find that it gives a good clean without leaving the skin too 'tight' feeling like normal soap does. I tend to prefer more specialised cleansers for my face as I have acne-prone skin, but I like that Dove is gentle enough that it doesn't cause me to break out if I do end up cleansing with it. I also find that it's pretty good at clearing up body spots as well when they rear their unwanted heads.

If you're after soap that's gentle, not overly-scented and available at your local supermarket, I would recommend Dove and will continue to repurchase myself.

Tips: Dove is pretty versatile if you're travelling and want something for face and body that's compact and won't spill, or you're on a plane and only have your carry-on. Just pop it in a soap travel case and you're good to go!

very drying

personally i hate dove beauty bars, dove advertises itself to be very hydrating and makes your skin soft. in my opinion this product is very drying and makes a barrier between your skin and water, personally i wuld never use this product agin results may be different for some.

Perfect face and baby wash

I used this on my children when they were babies as I couldn't use any soap products on them as they had really sensitive skin and found this wonderful and protected their skin and also I can't use any soaps on my face as I get really bad eczema really bad and found this to work wonders

Tips: GO OUT AND BUY IT you won't regret it :)

I'm usually a shower gel girl

but I had a few packs of these lurking in the bathroom cupboard and as I'm trying to use up the products that I already own rather then buying more, I thought I would start using this.

I love the scent, it's clean smelling and also light. It's enough to make you feel like you are washing yourself with something but it won't overpower any perfumes that you would want to put on after.

It's long lasting, I've been using my bar for about a month and I still have just under half left. I keep mine in a small plastic container at the top of my shower so it doesn't get wet and waste away when not in use.

I have dry skin and although I still need to moisterise after my shower, it doesn't leave my skin feeling tight or overly dry. I also like that it is fine to use on any part of your body. I originally bought these to use on my face but only ended up using one bar and storing the rest away. I liked it on my face, I just started using something else instead!

Overall, I think this is a great soap. It is cheap, although more expensive for a bar variety but if you are comparing it to shower gels or face cleansers then I think it is good value.

Old favourite.

I usually only use these bars for scrubbing feet and fingernails as I prefer body wash most of the time, however I sometimes use it with a loofah all over, especially at night because I find the scent calming and super clean. Though it is definitely less drying than a normal soap I do find it dries my skin out a bit more than a good body wash. It is super affordable and lasts for ages, and I also love the green tea version when it's around.

LOOOOOVE DOVE,

I have super sensitive skin, i tried dove beauty bar in the shower and even to wash my face, its so gentle, and it lathers up into a creamy smooth texture which i love. I like the soft smell too. Highly recommend it to anyone with sensitive skin, it doesn't dry my skin out, it leaves its it nice and soft and squeaky clean

Nice soap but had better.

I'm a shower gel kinda gal, but I couldn't resist buying Dove soap when I walked into Warehouse a few weeks back and they were selling them for $2 each. I purchased eight bars and have only used two. The smell is nice and soft and lathers so well. It feels creamy when you lather yourself as though your moisturising. A couple of issues I have are that the bar runs down very quickly and my skin does tend to feel dry afterwards, so I have to pile on the cream moisturises to compensate. But otherwise I do feel clean and smell nice and have six bars to get through.

Scentfree Saviour

My skin is very sensitive to scented products so I have been using Dove Sensitive Unscented Beauty Bar for years. I wouldn't ever use another soap. I usually to a quick once over with shower gel afterwards to smell nice.

Classic

A bar of soap isn't something that i generally use as i prefer liquid soap & body wash because it's more convenient, but occasionally i buy this soap if it's on special. This is the only soap bar that i would buy apart from hand made soaps, because apart from boutique soap bars it's the only one i know of that moisturizes.

I love the way that dove soap lathers, it feels silky & luxurious and makes an ideal all over wash for young skin, babies and little kids.
